Abstract (en)

A wavelength converter (1) includes: a substrate portion (10); and an optical conversion layer (30) including optical conversion inorganic particles (40) and an inorganic binder portion (50), wherein the inorganic binder portion (50) includes: an amorphous binder (52); and granular binder particulates (51) with an average particle size smaller than an average particle size of the optical conversion inorganic particles (40), and when a ratio of an average volume concentration of the binder particulates (51) in the substrate-side portion (31) with respect to an average volume concentration of the optical conversion inorganic particles (40) in the substrate-side portion (31) is defined as a substrate-side binder particulate concentration ratio RFs and, when a ratio of an average volume concentration of the binder particulates (51) in the non-substrate-side portion (32) with respect to an average volume concentration of the optical conversion inorganic particles (40) in the non-substrate-side portion (32) is defined as a non-substrate-side binder particulate concentration ratio RF<sub>o</sub>, the substrate-side binder particulate concentration ratio RFs is larger than the non-substrate-side binder particulate concentration ratio RF<sub>o</sub>.
